February 10, 2007Deemed to be the weakest link in a resource-starved tribe that would need all the strength it could get in order to have any hope of defeating its plush-living rivals, Jessica deBen, a 27-year-old fashion stylist who currently resides in Los Angeles, CA and is originally from New Orleans, LA, became the first Survivor: Fiji castaway to be eliminated from the game

May 15, 2006Benefiting from apparent jury dissatisfaction with what Survivor host Jeff Probst kindly termed the "quiet" and "subtle" manner in which his Final 2 opponent had played the game, Aras Baskauskas, a 24-year-old from Santa Monica, CA, defeated Danielle DiLorenzo, a 24-year-old currently residing in Pompano Beach, FL, to emerge as Survivor: Panama -- Exile Island's ultimate survivor and $1,000,000 winner during last night's season finale broadcast.

May 12, 2006No one was eliminated from the game in Survivor: Panama -- Exile Island's thirteenth episode, with the show's penultimate episode instead ending with Danielle DiLorenzo and Cirie Fields about to face off in a tiebreaking firestarting challenge in which the loser will be eliminated.

May 5, 2006For the second straight Tribal Council session, the former Casaya tribal members that had controlled who was voted out of Survivor: Panama -- Exile Island since the tribal merge ended up blindsiding one of their own, resulting in Shane Powers, a 35-year-old entertainment company owner from Los Angeles, CA, becoming the twelfth castaway eliminated from the game

April 28, 2006After several weeks of predictable "pagonging," the Casaya tribe members that had entered Survivor: Panama -- Exile Island's tribal merge with a dominant 6-4 numerical advantage were finally forced to turn on one of their own in a surprising way, resulting in Courtney Marit, a 31-year-old performance artist from Los Angeles, CA, becoming the eleventh castaway eliminated from the game.

April 21, 2006Done in by a less than glamorous blocked bowel, Bruce Kanegai, a 58-year-old karate instructor and high school art teacher from Simi Valley, CA, became the tenth Survivor: Panama -- Exile Island castaway to be eliminated from the game.

April 16, 2006The third victim of the game's predictable post-merge "pagonging" that even the introduction of a hidden Immunity Idol has thus far proven unable to disrupt, Sally Schumann, a 27-year-old social worker from Chicago, IL, became the ninth Survivor: Panama -- Exile Island castaway to be eliminated from the game.

April 7, 2006The second victim of the game's predictable post-merge "pagonging" that even the introduction of a hidden Immunity Idol has thus far proven unable to disrupt, Austin Carty, a 24-year-old aspiring actor and author from High Point, NC, became the eighth Survivor: Panama -- Exile Island castaway to be eliminated from the game.
